Concatenate with new-line

[Former Member]

Hi,

i got a Small problem. I have to Concatenate two Strings and Separated them with a New Line but i couldn't find anything to get this done.

My test Code looks like this :

DATA: test1 TYPE String,

test2 TYPE String,

test3 TYPE string.

test1 = 'Hallo'.

test2 = 'du da'.

CONCATENATE test1 test2 INTO test3 SEPARATED BY space.

WRITE test3.

This works so far but i need to replace space with something to get a new Line.

Maybe someone had an idea.

Hi Mortiz,

Please check below:

data: l_cr(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilites=>cr_lf,
      l_lf(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>linefeed.

One of the above will certainly help you. Am not on SAP now to check the same. Use this for concatenating.

  CONCATENATE str1 str2 INTO out SEPARATED BY l_cr.
  CONCATENATE str1 str2 INTO out SEPARATED BY l_lf.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Try this..

DATA: V_HEX TYPE X VALUE '0D'. "Carriage return.

DATA: V_CHAR(50).

CONCATENATE 'LINE1' 'LINE2' INTO V_CHAR SEPARATED BY V_HEX.

Mortiz,

In that case you need to declare as below.

>data: l_tab(1) type X value '09'

Value 09 denoted tab character, similarly you need to get the value for NEW LINE.

Sorry cant remember the exact code. Try to get the ascii character for the same.

Hi Mortiz

If you are checking in debug mode, it will be visible as '#'.

Try downloading the same to a file and then test the output.

Hi,

Try this

DATA: NEWLINE(2) TYPE X VALUE '0D0A'

DATA: V_CHAR(50).

CONCATENATE 'LINE1' 'LINE2' INTO V_CHAR SEPARATED BY NEWLINE.

Hmm if i download it to a file it works, but the Problem is i have to show the result in SAP.

In a Message Box and there i got the "#" or for sy-uline(5) i got "-----" :-/.

So i seperate the two Strings with a space.

This works but dint look nice, but its the only way to solve it at the moment.

Thanks for your great help.

Hai

There is small error in this code,

when using concatenate operator ,

CONCATENATE C1 C2 ....CN INTO STR1 BY H.

H should be Character type either C ,N,D,T or String.

In your program,

you are declaring line_br(2) type X.

so, it gives that error.

you should correct your code in either way like

DATA: line_br(4) TYPE C VALUE '0D0A'.

OR

DATA: line_br TYPE STRING VALUE '0D0A'.

DATA: v_line TYPE string.

CONCATENATE 'LINE1' 'LINE2' INTO v_line SEPARATED BY line_br.

Then it works.

if it useful, reward points.

Thank you,
